We usually have a lot of time for Martin Margiela’s footwear (no, really…), which is frequently quite stunning, but we must admit that the item above looks very much like a knee-length boot that spent too long in front of the fire and started to melt into a heap.

That’s without even mentioning the words “peep toe boots”. Or “cankles”.

We know someone out there is going to absolutely love these, though, so if that person is you, head over to Net-a-Porter, where they can be yours for the sum of £625 British pounds.
